As part of the deal in getting a 2-seater sports car, the Z is my daily commuter and my wife gets to use it on the weekends. It's actually kind of cool, my wife digs the car and gets my passion for the Z.

Gender aside, I wouldn't let someone learn MT on my Z (if it were MT)

My wife learned to drive on my 400 hp Z32 back in the day. The only way she could master it was letting her solo. Sometimes you need to be on your own without pressure to learn. As long as you are insured, go for it.

before we got married i told my wife. we share everything equally except the cars. i said, i am really sh!tty about cars. i told her, even your car, will be my car, since i will be the one maintaining it. i told her if she was serious about wanting a sports car that she could have one... that i get to drive. luckily she agreed to the terms.

I can't be gender biased here. My wife is the reason we have the Z. It was her DD for over a year before she got a new job with a really shitty commute in a MT. I've been driving and modding it for nearly three years now

If you have the sport package, SRM is a great friend to the MT newbs. But first, practice 1st/Rev at length in an open parking lot.

I'm gonna have the opposite problem. I'm about to take delivery of an MT Z and I need to teach her to drive it so she be the designated driver on the weekends!

She's scared to death and we don't even have the car yet!
